Nice one, Mark. You might get one frame in there if you put it on its end. It is a storage box tho'...the question remains - What is stored in it?

Kris was oh, so close with his GPS suggestion, but Yeo.NT is right on the money. It is a map case that is fixed to a wall of the prototype. It is made of light sheet metal and as the poor quality photos show, has a hinged lid on top and a hinged drop side making for easy access to the maps.

Yeo.NT, the next time you are in Hammond, we will crack open a brew together.

I will most certainly make pilgrimage one day, only just up the river in Petawawa. Work likes to keep me busy "restoring" their fleet.

Are you base side or 2 Svc Bn? I was posted to Pet (SSF days) in the interesting mid 80's (pre-Somalia deployment, missing weaponry, etc...). Nonetheless, Pet was a great "soldier" posting, but a bitch on family life back then...

Looking forward to meeting you sometime in the future - maybe you can get to Ottawa for a Gracie's beer call, and or a visit to the barn.

Well, now that you say it, it's obvious enough, should have guessed that.

You can usually get a container delivered for next to nothing since they'll fill it with paying freight that they deliver before getting to you.
